"An often-asked question on the selenium-users mailing list is how to test Ajax-specific functionality with Selenium. The problem with Ajax testing is that the HTML page under test is modified asynchronously, so a plain Selenium assert or verify command might very well fail because the element being tested has not been created yet by the Ajax call. A quick-and-dirty solution is to put a pause command before the assert, but this is error-prone, since the pause might be not sufficient on a slow machine, while being unnecessarily slow on a faster one."

"Two years ago I was very sceptical about automated UI testing. I had some painful experience with it because while writing the tests seemed relatively easy, maintaining them would become harder and harder over time to the point where it was impractical to maintain."

The goal of JsTestDriver is to build a JavaScript test runner which: easily integrates with continuous builds systems andallows running tests on multiple browsers quickly to ease TDD style development.

Jasmine is a behavior-driven development framework for testing your JavaScript code. It does not depend on any other JavaScript frameworks. It does not require a DOM. And it has a clean, obvious syntax so that you can easily write tests.

"One common problem with the naming convention and default routing mechanism in ASP.NET MVC is that we tend to group actions in a controller for sharing an URL space. This basically leads to complex controllers with a lot of unrelated methods that break the SOLID principles. Too many responsibilities in a simple class affects maintainability in the long run and causes secondary effects that complicates unit testing. For example, we usually end up with class constructors that receives too many dependencies as it is discussed here in SO."

"The Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern is an architectural design principle that separates the components of a Web application. This separation gives you more control over the individual parts of the application, which lets you more easily develop, modify, and test them."

"The jQuery UI Team is proud to announce that we are building a rich, fast grid widget that will enhance an HTML table with data linking, sorting, paging, filtering, row selection, and inline editing. As part of this process, we'll be building the features of the grid as standalone widgets and revisiting existing jQuery UI components. At the end of this process, not only will we have a grid, but also a better-tested, more feature-complete user interface library."
